Update on this: the first candidate without Pi fixes is done and currently available for testing - see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_39_RC_1.1_Summary . The second candidate is running, when it is done, https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_39_RC_1.2_Summary will be live. Most tests of either candidate will be valid for both, but we especially would like testing of the second candidate (when it's done) on ARM hardware - obviously on Raspberry Pi, but also on any other ARM hardware folks have lying around. We ended up having to revert uboot- tools to an older version to try and address the Pi issues, so we need to check that hasn't broken anything else important. If you run into problems, please file a bug, propose it as a release blocker, and maybe reply here just to be sure :) Thanks! -- Adam Williamson (he/him/his) Fedora QA Fedora Chat: @adamwill:fedora.im | Mastodon: @adamw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx https://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ arm mailing list -- arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to arm-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
